Current Affairs The Next PM is?

I disagree - of the possible candidates, I think Wallace or Tugendhat present the worst threat for Labour, because of their background and the lack of association with what has gone on. Mordaunt isn't offensive to anyone over there in Tory-land either. Javid has the benefit of quitting twice but who likes dogs that return to their own vomit? Zahawi does have the vaccine to boast of (with much more justification than Johnson) too.

Sunak on the other hand is both overly associated with Johnson and someone who stabbed him in the back and someone who the public don't really know - he would be a stretch.

I am not sure there is an open goal candidate for Labour - Truss probably comes closest.
Zahawi already upping his game and cocking up. Really, how hard is it to know if somebody is alive or dead, and is the former PM - hardly bodes confidence.

 
I think Mordaunt is a fully paid up member of the ERG, so she should appeal to the rabid, nut-job wing of the party.

That’s not good. More of Mogg, Bridgen, Francois and co given oxygen (anyone seen Francois recently by the way ?)

It needs someone who recognises that bridges have to be built, rather than playing to the internal gallery and constantly sabre rattling.

So it’s Truss or Ben Wallace….
 
Who isn't running to become PM? I'd imagine it's a smaller list that way around.

They'll tear themselves apart again whoever it is as they all just want the top job for themselves.
